If you're going to be doing any travelling this holiday weekend, the Minnesota Department of Transportation has released a list of construction zones that could add a little extra time to your trip.

MnDOT released the list of active construction zones Thursday, and said that while workers won't be manning the shovels over the holiday weekend, those always-popular orange barrels, barricades and cones will still be in place.

And, of course, MnDOT urges drivers to exercise patience and reminds us to SLOW DOWN when going through constructions zones. I'd add in that you should do the Zipper Merge, too!)
